Eh?. What?. Read the second link having particular regard to the comments of David Greene of Civitas on the conclusions of the Rowntree Report in the first link: David Green, director of research group Civitas, said some people in the UK were finding it hard to compete with the newcomers. He said all the extra labour was keeping wages low and making it harder for people to work their way out of poverty.

(When I heard him on Today this morning I confused him with that appalling shit Andrew Green of "Migration Watch UK" and was rather concerned at the thought a mainstream thinktank like Civitas had picked up such a loon. To be fair I don't think he's quite of that order, on the other hand in his Today piece one could be forgiven for being confused between the two.)
